    I want your opinions on homophobic bullying that can push gays to suicide , especially on the Tyler Clementi case.

    Bullying is a bad thing but being home is kind a weird too. Yes, the media trying to manipulate us into thinking that being homophobic is bad just like when we said anything bad about Israel will remind us about holocaust. Nonetheless, a bully need to be punished no matter what.

    It's a tragedy that in this day and age this type of thing is happening in the world.

    No one has ANY right to judge gays, lesbians or bisexuals simply on the basis of their sexuality; it's no one's business and unless they are doing something that harms someone else, then people need to shut the fuck up and mind their own business. Caring what other people do in the privacy of their own bedroom is wrong; being gay is not.

    ipostmedia - you say the media try to manipulate you into thinking being homophobic is wrong; have you ever stopped to consider it is wrong? I'm not gay, I'm bisexual - I'm with a man now but my ex was another woman - and I loved her dearly. This is how I was born. You calling gays "homos" and implying it's OK to be homophobic is no different than being a racist and hating people because of what color they were born.

    Are you also a racist? Or a sexist?

    The world will be a better place when homophobes, sexists and racists are gone from it.

    2 bit simple . Teens don't have their sexual orientation cemented and are far more susceptible to mockery . The fact is that this type of suicide have been going on for years . The media put the spotlight on one case and got rating so naturally they went looking for more .

    Just watched the Milk movie recently, nice movie and I'd have to agree with Alexis. No one has any right to judge anyone.
